Is there anyone out there using Advia xpt chemistry? Please comment

We follow the same procedure as does David. we oly get back the blood bag for transfusion reaction workup.

Hello everybody. Can you please comment on which TLA is more user friendly, more practicle, efficient, and needs less maintenance for a high volume chemistry lab? Thnx

Can anonyone please comment on the system and the metod they use for the NAT?? we are in the process of implementing NAT and i need advice. Thanks alot.

Could anybody please comment on which NAT system has better advantages, more reliable and cost effective over the others?? Thank you for sharing your experiances.

Can we stop running serological testing and run only NAT on blood donors or do we have to continue both at the same time. Thank you for your comment.

Can somebody explain what is the difference between An Ortho Provue and Ortho Autovue? Also could you please share your experiences about the system how reliable and productive is? Thanks a lot.

Hello everyone. Would you please share your experiences about different brands of refrigerated centrifuges for blood components preparation. We are planning to buy a couple of them and looking for the best and heavy duty one. Thank you all.

We have been using Galileo for over 4 years. We had lots of up and down times. Its a good system but i think it's better if you try to look at different technologies and choose the best at this time as David suggested, because the technology is moving so fast and does not stay at one place.Good luck

I was wondering if anyone has used Hettich refrigerated centrifuge for blood components preparation and would like to share their experiances with me. Thank you.

Yes, We do have problem with this reagent with false negative, and we have already informed our supplier.

can anybody comment if we can use expired system liquid in galileo and how long post expiry, thanks.

we just do the temp heck on each shift.

Thanks a lot Rashmi for ur reply. We do not use our phenotype reagents for a months and we do not leave them on board for a long period. We had this problem at the begining when we introduced Galileo. Immucor support instruct us to keep the reagnt back in the fridge when they are not in use. We did not see the growth after that, but they are back again even though we follow the same instructions. There must be some thing else, don't you think?

Has anyone using Galileo noticed growth in the phenotyping reagents? Thank you for leting me know.
